Chapter 669: The father-in-law of the emperor still can’t have enough to eat?
"Then, I won't carry you in my arms from now on. I'll support you." Jun Lie supported Xiao Jiuyue and walked with her around the Imperial Garden, saying, "Winter is coming, and there won't be as many flowers as before."
"The plum blossoms are blooming beautifully, and Jinli is looking very pretty." Xiao Jiuyue walked on the curved bridge, watching Jinli swimming happily in the pond. She asked, "Don't you have any memorials to review? Or any court affairs to discuss?"
"I'm in hibernation, what's the matter?" Jun Lie had no interest in the affairs of the court. He just wanted to stay by Xiao Jiuyue's side every day, guarding her and Xiao Xingxing.
"Besides, the purpose of maintaining civil and military officials is to make them work. Otherwise, what's the point of giving them salaries for free?"
Jun Lie said seriously, "Everyone has planted cabbages and radishes, and the oranges in Fu'an are ripe. Spring sowing will have to wait until next year."
"Qin Tao won a victory in Yongzhao. Yongzhao has already sent tribute and apology to Shengjing, hoping to sue for peace." Jun Lie chuckled and said, "I don't know where Yongzhao got the courage from. He thinks that by controlling my father, he can make him do whatever he wants?"
"Maybe they're getting cocky?" Xiao Jiuyue was also a little confused. She said, "Perhaps their gunpowder has improved, and they think they can defeat us, South Vietnam?"
"They are just dreaming. They don't even know their own worth." Jun Lie said seriously, "The Rouan tribe's war horses are well-raised. I've asked the tribesmen to contact Qin Tao more often so that we can raise more war horses!"
"With Blood Blade's help with the gunpowder issue, we can continue experimenting and make our gunpowder even more powerful." Jun Lie gazed into the distance. "I hope there will be no more wars in South Vietnam, and the people can live and work in peace!"
"Under the leadership of a wise ruler, the people will surely be able to live and work in peace and contentment!"
Xiao Jiuyue glanced at him sideways: "You have reduced taxes and cut down on the previous chaotic taxes. The grain harvest is abundant again. Everyone can fill their stomachs. We will definitely live a good life!"
"I don't seek to be a wise ruler, I just want the people to live better and better every day."
Ever since Xiao Jiuyue became pregnant, Jun Lie has been spending more time with her every day, and he no longer has a stern face in the court.
In this relaxed and happy atmosphere, we stepped from the first year of Yong'an to the second year of Yong'an.
Xiao Jiuyue was three months pregnant, and the news of the queen's pregnancy spread throughout the court and Shengjing.
All the civil and military officials were smiling and pretending not to know the news, congratulating Jun Lie. Jun Lie was in a very good mood until Old Wang took Xiao Jiuyue's pulse and found out that she was having twins.
Jun Lie began to worry.
"Mr. Wang, are you sure you didn't take the pulse wrong? How come it's twins?" Jun Lie looked at Mr. Wang worriedly and asked him to take the pulse again. Unfortunately, it was twins, no matter how many times he took the pulse, it was still twins.
"Master, I didn't use any medicine. This is a natural pregnancy. Maybe it's a gift from God?" Xiao Jiuyue really didn't expect that his dream would come true!
She actually got pregnant with twins, and she had already started thinking happily: Wouldn't it be even better if they were twins, a boy and a girl?
"Your Majesty, you must follow my prescription from now on. You must also be very careful about your diet." Old Wang looked serious. If the twins grow too big, Xiao Jiuyue will be the one in danger!
For Old Wang, he doesn't care whether Xiao Jiuyue gives birth to a prince or not, as long as his disciple Xiao Jiuyue is safe.
Now he has begun to research better pregnancy-preserving pills to minimize the risks of childbirth.
The next day, Su Su entered the palace. When she learned the news that Xiao Jiuyue was pregnant with twins, Su Su's eyes turned red. She held Xiao Jiuyue's hand and said, "Yuer, you, why are you so..." What a miserable life!
After Su Su learned the news yesterday, she was so worried that she couldn't sleep all night. The good news of Xiao Jiuyue's pregnancy instantly turned into worry.
"Mom, twins are fine too. Don't worry, I will give birth safely!" Xiao Jiuyue survived the first three months without any morning sickness and enjoyed everything she ate!
She had lost weight during her pregnancy, but now she has obviously started to gain weight. The most obvious thing about her is that her belly is much bigger than before!
When she was pregnant with Little Star, she was already five months pregnant. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell.
It's only been three months now, but she feels like her belly is as big as it was five months ago.
"Yes, everything will be fine." Su Su chatted with Xiao Jiuyue and asked, "Where's Xiao Xingxing?"
"She can walk now. She goes out to play every day and never stays in the house." Xiao Jiuyue couldn't help but smile with happiness when she mentioned her daughter. Her daughter's first call of "Mom" made her so excited that she couldn't sleep all night.
The first time her daughter learned to walk, Xiao Jiuyue watched her over and over again.
Xiao Jiuyue felt very distressed about her well-behaved and sensible daughter. When Xiao Xingxing knew that she was pregnant, she never let her hold her!
Although he is only a little over one year old, he is very sensible.
"Chao Chao is the same at home, she just loves to walk around!" Su Su chatted with her about the children. When they returned to the Xiao Mansion, Su Su started to eat vegetarian food and said, "From today on, I will pray for Yue'er!"
When Xiao Fu returned home, he looked at the table without any meat or vegetables and said, "Su Niang, we have to eat meat."
"Isn't this a dish? As long as you have food and vegetables, it's enough to eat your fill. Yue'er is pregnant with twins. As her parents, we must pray for her and hope that she has a safe delivery." Su Su looked at Xiao Fu with red eyes.
Xiao Fu swallowed all the words he wanted to refute: "Okay, okay, we'll be vegetarians. Don't worry too much. I've asked Elder Wang. Although twins are a little dangerous, as long as you take good care of the fetuses, you can have a safe delivery!"
"Mr. Wang delivered twins a few days ago. The two babies were very big, both weighing more than four pounds, and they were born safely, weren't they?" Xiao Fu's comforting words did not comfort Su Su at all.
Xiao Fu simply asked Cui Yaoduo to take the child to accompany Su Su.
Half a month later, Xiao Fu fainted in the court. Jun Lie was so frightened that he quickly called in the imperial physician. When he learned that it was due to lack of nutrition, Jun Lie said, "..."
Can’t the father-in-law of the emperor have enough food to eat?
"Father-in-law, the imperial physician said that you can't just eat vegetables. You need to eat more meat, otherwise your body won't be able to withstand it." Jun Lie said, "I have several houses and shops here, and I'm giving them all to you, father-in-law."
"Ahem." Xiao Fu blushed. He was old, yet he fainted from lack of nutrition. He cleared his throat and said, "No need. We have plenty of money at home. It's Yue'er's mother who said she wanted to pray for Yue'er and a safe delivery, so she's eating vegetarian food!"
Xiao Fu found an excuse and ran away, not daring to look his son-in-law in the eye!
As soon as he got home, Xiao Fu asked the kitchen to start adding meat dishes.
Xiao Jiuyue was originally worried about her biological father, and when she heard the news, she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
